I like PPC mag

you sometimes want to strangle them for obvious numptyness
but its very much the attitude that makes up for any technical short comings

cut it up weld in new mounts put in big engine and stick a massive blower on it

particularly like chalies 27 litre sd1

"If you can’t stand the smell of petrol, if you don’t get goose pimples when a dragster launches, or if your manicurist’s phone number is on speed dial, bugger off. PPC in the Park is not for you"

they also drown puppies if you don't take out a subscription

its daft

they do daft stuff

the cars are not to my taste all of the time

lots on making recent performance junk work in whatever car you stick it in

hot rodding for boys with too much cash too little sense

never belive anything in their product tests they usually make use of the test facility at the manufaturere of the one that wins...strange that

but still

you need practical classics to make you sane again
